Group listening parties on Google + Listening Parties!

If you haven't used Google Hangout yet, Google+'s online video chatroom that lets you know when your friends are hanging out, consider that my former colleague Jenna Wortham of the New York Times thinks it just might be Google's "killer app," which is really saying something, when you're talking about a company with as much to offer as Google does.

And if you've yet to sign in to group listening service Turntable.fm, consider how many music fans already love the way the recently-launched service lets them get together to spin music and talk about it.

By combining those two concepts -- with or without the video component -- to create real-time music listening parties with push notifications, Google+ could run "circles" around Facebook in the group listening department.

And music fans would start evangelizing Google+ in order to get their friends involved, the same way they are currently doing with Turntable.fm.
